SEASON FINALE: More viewers watched last Sundays season finale of Game of Thrones than had tuned to any episode in the show’s history, so the popularity of this game of warcraft chess has far from peaked. But if you missed it, or would like to see it again, HBO is repeating it in its entirety with this same-week rerun. You have to wonder, given the increasing acceptance of Video on Demand and HBO Go, how much longer this network, or any other, will be able to continue pulling the same-week

SEASON PREMIERE: Some shows imported from the U.K. are fascinating, and hypnotic, largely because they proceed at their own pace, with their own rules, and with their proudly idiosyncratic interests and obsessions. That was the case, for many decades, with One Man and His Dog, and it’s the case here, with many men and women, and judges, and their cakes and pies. Check local listings.

It’s Olivia de Havilland night on TCM, and that means another chance to see, in all its widescreen glory, 1939’s classic Civil War drama, Gone with the Wind. She played Melanie Hamilton, not Scarlett O’Hara, but that’s a good enough excuse to run it again.

What a political week… and, once again, what a show to look forward to, to help put it all into perspective. Tonight’s scheduled guests include comedian Jim Gaffigan, though I’m not sure he’s the one to shed the most light this week.
